New Jigsaw Schools Open with Record Attendance

20 February 2019

This term we saw the opening of three exciting new Jigsaw schools in Harlow, Teddington and Cardiff.

“It has been a terrific start to the year” says Company Director Andy Hutchings, “the training provided by our award-winning franchise package and the commitment and enthusiasm of our new franchisees; Rachel, Imogen and Philippa have meant that all three schools have had an excellent start in their opening term.”

With all three schools opening with lots of excited and enthusiastic students it only proves that Jigsaw Performing Arts is a trusted provider of high-quality performing arts classes amongst parents.

“Jigsaw Harlow is alive and kicking and what a fantastic first few weeks of term we have had!” says Rachel, who’s school in Harlow runs on Sunday mornings. “Our presentation pieces are well underway, and we cannot wait for our students to get their opportunity to shine! The support received from the Jigsaw Head Office has been second to none and it has definitely been the reason for what I feel is a successful opening of the school!” (Read more about Rachel here.)

Philippa, who’s school in Cardiff opened with over 100 students - record numbers on an opening weekend is positively bursting with pride! “The students were great; the teachers and Jigsaw support was great, and I felt completely amazed with how perfect it all felt! It was amazing to finally meet all the customers that I had spoken to over the months in the build up to our first day. The support from Andy, Nicki and the team is far better that I could have imagined!” (Read more about Philippa here.)

“It was an unbelievably seamless, successful and joyful first day” says Imogen, who runs Jigsaw Teddington on Saturday mornings. “Now, just 4 weeks into our first term, I know that this is one of the best decisions I have made. Jigsaw Arts Teddington has already brought me a huge sense of achievement and pride and I couldn’t have wished for more aspirational and knowledgeable people supporting me. A special thanks to Andrew Hutchings, Nicola Lander and all of the Jigsaw Team!” (Read more about Imogen here.)

“We are so proud of all our franchisees” says Andy, “and with two more schools opening next term it only means that even more students have the opportunity to discover their talents, learn new skills and grow in confidence through the Performing Arts.”
